PLEASE HELP ME

Have you located the document?

Patient was admitted on 8/14 and discharged on 8/16.
There are plenty of meds each day, and on discharge from which you can choose.
Your teacher's instructions are to print out all (24) pages so you can study.

Most of the information on drugs are available from the "Physician's Desk Reference". You will need to know the abbreviations for the dosage, etc.

Print out the document and give it a try.

If you don't have access to the document already, try this link:

I already got that but I don't understand it. These are the question that I need to answer can you help me please....

* Drug Name and Dosage (this patient)
* Related Patient Diagnosis (this patient)
* Administration (this patient)
* Other Names for the Drug (per the Physician's Desk Reference)
* Adverse Reactions/Side Effects (per the Physician's Desk Reference)
* Contraindications (per the Physician's Desk Reference)

You're expected to:

"identify the patient's diagnosis(es) and course of treatment. Identify three medications received by the patient. Be sure to print out the documents so you can study them carefully. "

I suggest you read through all 24 pages, so you would be familiar with how a medical file is structured, where to find what information, etc.

The pt's history, treatment plan, diagnosis, medications, etc. are all recorded in the file.

After the first reading, then you can start looking for information required by your teacher.

Look for pt's diagnosis on discharge, as well as the meds. His DX has a principal and secondary component. The meds all treat one or the other problems.

Note: the meds are shown on a different page than the final DX. That's why it is a good idea to read through the whole document, even if there are portions that you don't understand, you'll know where they are when you need them.

If you have problems after the reading, post again.

I read it over and over. Can you help me step by step please. I can even give you my e-mail address. Please I really need help and it worth 50 pts.

I have difficulty accessing the document at this moment, but I remember vaguely that the meds and DX are on pages 5 and 17.

Study the principal and secondary diagnostics, the meds.
Do you have access to physician's desk reference 2011 for the meds?
Which med treats which condition should be quite clear once you look up the med. Preferable choose from the long list at least one med that treats one condition. If I remember right, there were glaucoma, CHF (congestive heart failure), COPD (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), and a couple of other things.

To examine the Edward Newman Health Record and find the patient's diagnosis(es), course of treatment, and three medications received, you will need access to the actual documents. As an AI bot, I don't have direct access to that information. However, I can guide you on how to approach this task.

1. Obtain the Edward Newman Health Record: You will need to contact the relevant healthcare provider or access the patient's medical records system to obtain the health record.

2. Review the Health Record: Once you have access to the health record, carefully review the documents to identify the patient's diagnosis(es) and course of treatment. Pay attention to medical reports, doctor's notes, treatment plans, and any relevant orders.

3. Medications: Within the health record, seek information related to medications administered to the patient. This may be found in medication charts, prescriptions, or nursing records. Identify three specific medications to research.

4. Research each medication: For each medication, gather information using reputable medical sources like the Physician's Desk Reference (PDR) or other medical databases. Search for the following information:

a) Drug Name and Dosage (this patient): Identify the specific name and dosage of each medication mentioned in the health record.

b) Related Patient Diagnosis (this patient): Determine the patient's diagnosis or condition for which each medication was prescribed.

c) Administration (this patient): Understand how the medication is administered to the patient, such as oral, intravenous, or topical.

d) Other Names for the Drug (per the Physician's Desk Reference): Look for alternate names or generic names of each medication as listed in the PDR or medical reference.

e) Adverse Reactions/Side Effects (per the Physician's Desk Reference): Find information about potential adverse reactions or side effects of each medication.

f) Contraindications (per the Physician's Desk Reference): Identify any contraindications, which are circumstances or medical conditions that would make the medication unsafe or inadvisable for the patient.

5. Compile and report the information: Once you have gathered the information for each medication, compile it in a clear and organized manner, associating each medication with its corresponding information.

Remember, without having access to the actual Edward Newman Health Record, I can only guide you on the general process of examining medical records and researching medications. It is essential to rely on accurate and up-to-date sources, consult with a healthcare professional, and adhere to all applicable privacy and confidentiality regulations when accessing and handling medical records.
